Editorial Reviews

One has to appreciate a composer who's not trying to conquer the world with his music. The French composer Pascal Dusapin very simply tries to write quality music which, being under the shadow of Pierre Boulez as he is, seems easier said than done. But Dusapin is somewhat of a hero in France for simply writing the music he wants to write--and he has been quite successful at it without the blessing of Boulez. After listening to a fair amount of Dusapin, one will find some of it quite good, some of it less than mediocre. His brand of contemporary French music is most successful in the lushness of the larger works for orchestra and voices of which there are three works to chose from on this disc. --Kirk Noreen
